Drivers

Compared with PC, the game console is cheap, high in standardization, almost unnecessary for system maintenance, and it is a cheap and worry-free choice for players. Compared with mobile phones, the host computer has significantly stronger computing power, higher operation complexity, and can play on the big screen, which can provide a better game experience. Especially for markets with living room culture such as the United States and Western Europe, the host is the only game platform suitable for parties and family scenes. For developers, the host platform has almost no piracy, uniform hardware standards and strong spending power of players, which is most conducive to the maximization of commercial interests.

For the game content side, the game console platform has irreplaceable significance. First of all, it is difficult to crack and there is no piracy, thus safeguarding the interests of content parties to the maximum extent. Secondly, it adopts the buyout system, and the initial payment is very large, which improves the cash flow of developers and publishers. Thirdly, its hardware is standardized, which is conducive to optimization. Unlike PC platform, there are countless kinds of hardware collocation. Finally, many game consoles are sold at a loss in the early selling stage, which is equivalent to the host manufacturers subsidizing players, which can build a huge group of players-the ultimate beneficiary is still the content side. Game manufacturers and content providers are well aware that the portability, leisure and social attributes of the host are worse than those of mobile phones; It is also difficult for the host to fully turn to the in-purchase payment mode of mobile games. To attract players, developers and publishers must invest more in the technical quality of games. Ray tracing technology is a life-saving straw: it can produce highly realistic light and shadow effects, give the picture a higher sense of reality, and make the game completely cinematic. Sony PS5 has announced its support for ray tracing technology. In the next generation, only the breakthrough technological progress can give the mainframe vitality. Since the seventh generation, the research and development of console games has become a capital-intensive and manpower-intensive arms race. The development cost of GTA5 reached $137 million, while that of fistful of dollars 2 took 1,185 developers, and the total cost was close to $400 million. Only the shocking pictures and cinematic narrative mode are conducive to attracting more players and stimulating the growth of the game console market.
